Saban can destroy a program just like he can build one. Jimmy Sexton's boy.

LSU made seben. While seben was at Mich. State he noted Louisiana no. 1 State for NFL players also per capita. He requested (not LSU) to interview for Head LSU football coaching position. Charlie Reems LSU Board of Supervisors will verify my preceeding statement.
Upon being named the LSU football coach and at his press TV introduction he excused himself and went into the bathroom and then asked himself, 'Do I really want to do this'.
This is further amplified by after losing to Univ. of ala. Birmingham his first year he went running into into his office where Jimmy Sexton his agen was and started yelling or crying, 'Why did you ever get me into this F______ School!

Yeah, what a little bitch. Napolean needs an arse kicking and this LSU team is the one to do it.

True, but Nick Saban is the only coach who can lead a team that can beat this year's LSU team. We need to use the Wildcat scheme to take advantage of Jefferson - we cannot win with Lee at the helm.

NEVER listen to a coach who wants tp pick his/her successor. They are too close to the situation.

Shows the type of guy he is. He believed enough in himself to take a chance and he totally turned around LSU. He then took another shot by going to the NFL. It bit him in the butt, but he left a comfy job at LSU to try something else. I highly doubt most others would have left LSU for the uncertainty of the NFL. Say what you want. The guy is probably the beat college football coach in the country and he has a pair of crystal balls to prove it.

For show, there was a very mild endorsement of Nutt, who has the same agent (Sexton). In private, Saban told LSU he thought Frank Beamer would be a good coach to hire. Saban never seriously thought he was picking his successor -- just naming some guys he respected (and doing a solid for Sexton, in one case). And no, I don't have a link.

Without Jefferson playing a huge role (I support starting him but I was inexplicably ridiculed for that position), LSU will not beat Alabama. I think we'll win, but we'll win due to Jefferson not Lee.

I swear our fanbase is ignorant. You really just said," we can't win with Lee at the helm"?

weren't you the dumbass who said that Lee was playing too well and is due for a bad game? That was your reasoning for benching him, because he is due for a bad game.

You were ridiculed for being an idiot
